[NFBCS] looking for an accessible Windows-based backup utility, or drive imaging software?

[Nancy Coffman]

Hello:

it is not a backcup program but might be worth running. It is a little utility I have used that is available on the Internet. It is called Jellybean key finder. You would need to make sure they have upgraded it to Windows 10 and that you can get the keys off of your other software. I believe computers may have a Windows key somewhere on the label also. Belark Advisor is another utility that can give you information about software keys and serial numbers.

Such as the very software that I'm using to dictate this email. Dragon professional because of an additional disability unfortunately is not inexpensive. Just for the program retails for $300 US. And just to see what I really have to lose, I called Microsoft the other day to find out how much would cost to replace my Windows 10 professional product key should I ever have to, $200. Again this does not sound like it's something I want to just lose. Should this machine ever have a hard drive problem. Does anyone have any thoughts on what would be workable? The other thing that I've learned, just because a company says a piece of software is accessible, meaning usable by a blind person, the reality can sometimes be very different.

And I will do my very best to clear up any issue that may come up but being able to understand what I've dictated.

The point is that this email is me personally since I own the machine which I'm writing it on, it certainly doesn't reflect the position, and/or view of the deaf blind division. Having mentioned the dictation, and mentioned a disclaimer I look forward to hearing from someone soon?
